"You want to be my student?" xiao Shuxiang's forehead shriveled as he stared at the figure of the young man before him.


"I-i... Just want to learn from you,"


"Have you pretended to approach me all this time to be my student?"


"Ti-not at all. I'm not pretending, really."


Wang Zhao was seen kneeling. He looked at Xiao Shuxiang who was sitting on a large rock. They were at the edge of the forest and had just finished cutting down some trees.


Xiao Shuxiang exhaled, "Let me straighten this out.." he crossed his arms and said, "You gave me some help with the weeds so that I can teach you how to fight?"


"Mom-not like that,"


"You're pretending to be my friend, right?"


"No. Absolutely not!" Wang Zhao almost cried because Xiao Shuxiang was so cold when he spoke to her.


"Mr Xiao, I'm really sorry... I'm just asking for your help, please."


"You're a real whiny, when I'm just bluffing you a little bit." Xiao Shuxiang shook his head slowly, so he felt unsure that Wang Zhao would become a powerful swordsman.


Wang Zhao rubbed his face, he said slowly. "I... Actually Shizun once said that I have talent. Ha-just... My spiritual core has many roots. This made my practical level never change how hard I tried. And i'm... Ever seen your spiritual core, Mr. Xiao. You're... Got two, right?"


"Right, but what does that have to do with yours?"


"A "spiritual essence with roots will look different. The roots in your spiritual core are no longer there, but the marks from the roots can still be seen. Um..." Wang Zhao had actually just noticed this clearly-the former roots on the young man's dantian before him could not be counted. The number is too much.


Wang Zhao blinked as he could no longer see Xiao Shuxiang's Dantian. He was sure that there was a seal blocking him.


"The Soul Restraint Chain Seal can hide my dantian so that no one will be able to see it. But this guy actually knows I have two dantians... That means he has unusual eyes,"


"What else do you see?" Xiao Shuxiang asked to confirm it.


Wang Zhao shook his head softly, "I don't see anything anymore. But... Sometimes there's like a breeze in a weird shape that's circling your body,"


"really? Waahs... Other cultivators did not know. This kid has good eyesight, too,"


Wang Zhao nodded, "Are you okay, Mister Xiao?"


"certain. I wonder why you're not afraid of me, when you see something strange." Xiao Shuxiang stroked his pony hair softly, "You even want to become my disciple. I have never accepted a single disciple, I have always rejected those who wish to become my disciples. Then what's your value that I should give you this opportunity?"


"I'm..." Wang Zhao thought about it and there was indeed nothing he could offer. "If you can't be Mr. Xiao's student... Can I just ask for your help?"


"What do you want?"


"Shizun says that the roots in the spiritual core can be lost by eating the five types of lightning and sunlight. What's... That right?"


Xiao Shuxiang nodded. "Right, you have to cultivate the five types of lightning with sunlight to reduce the roots on your dantian."


"Master Xiao once cultivated it himself?"


"No, someone else processed it for me. I can actually do it myself. If you want, I can help you. But you have to collect the ingredients,"


"Five types of lightning... How do I collect it?" Wang Zhao has given up. He actually wanted Xiao Shuxiang to accompany him to gather the five types of lightning, but in retrospect... This young man looks like he won't help her.


"I've never asked him further. But even though Shizun told me, there's no way I can go alone."


"........"


Xiao Shuxiang was speechless, he gently touched the bangs of his hair and thought for a moment. It was obvious from those eye gazes-Wang Zhao asked for company.


Xiao Shuxiang, "It would be difficult to decide to help him, but I also want to find information about that Sun Killing Book. During his stay in this sect... No one talks about it. I don't need a place where I don't get anything,"


Wang Zhao looked at Xiao Shuxiang who seemed to be seriously thinking. He simply continued to kneel and had no intention of bothering this young man before him. In his heart he wished to be accompanied. Although Xiao Shuxiang's practice was only at the 5th level of Forging Qi, yet he felt that this young man was more reliable than anyone else.


Xiao Shuxiang was still very focused in his mind, "The problem is... The cultivators from the lower cultivation realms including my White Cat live in this sect. Some of them could have brought a leaf from the Sun Killer Book. But I can't possibly steal it... I need a careful plan if I want to do that and if it fails-the risks are huge."


"Master Xiao...?" Wang Zhao called out.


"can't. The people here are too strong. First of all I have to figure out how to loosen the seal the old bangka gave me,"


"Master Xiao...?" Wang Zhao called again.


"I'll accompany you." Xiao Shuxiang finally replied and it made Wang Zhao flinch.


"You... Seriously?"


"Mn, but you have to help me."


Wang Zhao nodded quickly, "Just tell me what I can help." he looked excited. Xiao Shuxiang was now like a helper angel to him.


"First of all, look for information about the location of the five types of lightning."


"Well, I'll do it."


"Then you have to help me get permission from Grandpa Dao. I can't leave if I don't have his permission. Then I need you to get some physical exercise first,"


Wang Zhao gasped when he heard Xiao Shuxiang's last words. He looked at the charming young man.


Xiao Shuxiang continued, "Although I only accompanied you, but you should also at least know how to fight. I don't want to carry a burden that must be protected at all times."


Wang Zhao looked nervous, "But... You're gonna train me, right? L'm... It will not develop if it is only its own training. Shizun... Never taught me how to fight,"


"Just calm down,"


Wang Zhao's eyes opened wide when he saw the strange wind gathering on Xiao Shuxiang's right hand and it only took a single breath until the wind solidified into a single pot of white ceramics.


Xiao Shuxiang made Wang Zhao stunned as well as stunned, he drank water on the ceramic pot which was apparently his wine.


Xiao Shuxiang again said, "I am very good at training... Someone's become a monster,"


"He-great..." Wang Zhao blinked, he did not hear the latter's Xiao Shuxiang remark from being too stunned.


Wang Zhao most likely did not know that Xiao Shuxiang had a Spatial Ring with him. The heirloom was not visible on the young man's fingers until he thought it was Xiao Shuxiang's hidden ability.


Wang Zhao gasped as the young man threw away the ceramic pot whose water had been drained. Xiao Shuxiang came down from the rock where he sat and asked Wang Zhao to come with him.
